We all know that this was a dry winter. The amount of water in the snow accumulations is well below average. We live in a desert and all of us need to be water aware. As the weather is heating up, more residents are starting up their sprinkler systems and we need be aware of the need for water conservation. ---PAGE BREAK--- The Utah Division of Water Resources is saying that for the next week, we should run our sprinklers only twice. You can follow this reliable Weekly Lawn Watering Guide designed exclusively for Salt Lake County to help you determine when and how much to water. The normal rule of thumb is that one irrigation equals 20 minutes with pop-up spray heads and 40 minutes with impact rotor sprinklers. This year, however, is not a normal year and a little bit of water conservation by everyone can make a difference. Try reducing your sprinkler time settings by 10% by watering your lawn for 18 minutes instead of 20 or cutting one day out of your watering schedule when it starts to get hot, and your lawn needs more water. The state watering experts estimate that Utah could save more than 20 billion gallons of water in the summer if everyone watered according to the Weekly Lawn Watering Guide. Please stay out of the streams during the spring runoff. A little wading can rapidly turn into an emergency. Carefully watch your kids and your doggie family members and keep them safe. Oddly enough, while we are talking about the low snowpack and the need for conserving water, we need to be water aware on another front as well. The snowpack is melting and the runoff is expected to peak during the end of May. ---PAGE BREAK--- This means that we all need to be aware of fast running streams. The runoff is fast and cold and it doesn't take very deep water to knock a child or even adult off their feet.
